'concentration camp' has a strong association with the holocaust, regardless of what camp type you're talking about. if someone smashes a few windows at night you wouldn't call it a kristallnacht.

shrug, sure there are strong associations, but it doesn't denote anything to do with the holocaust. american camps for japanese people were just as much concentration camps. the kristallnacht analogy would be stronger if people were saying 'konzentrationslager'

The reason why it's contentious is because "concentration camp" denotes arbitrary/biased and indefinite detention. Ironically if it were up to Trump there wouldn't be "camps", they'd just be shipped awaypic.twitter.com/vNloIABv96
